The vibrant 9th–century port town of La Coruña, on the Iberian Peninsula, is a delicate combination of old and new architecture, with the shimmering glass of modern buildings prompting the local's to nickname it ‘The Crystal City' juxtaposed against the deeply historical medieval district; rich in Galician culture, history, gastronomy and natural beauty. The centrepiece of this region is the Santiago de Compostela, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where it is said the Relics of James the Apostle are buried – an incentive for the pilgrims who make the journey along the Camino de Santiago each year. From climbing up the world's oldest working lighthouse to drinking fresh Estrella Galicia beer to exploring the small collection of immaculate bays, La Coruña's many treasures and quieter atmosphere make this a town worth discovering |
